Kelly Flood, who represents the 75th district, which is in Lexington. We talked about why she decided to run for office, and what she’s done while she’s been in the legislature. Our conversation was very enlightening and revealing! Rep. Flood is a wonderful woman and we loved hearing her perspective.

Please note, this conversation occurred on Oct 17, which was before the pension plan was released.

In this episode, we brought together two people with very different perspectives. Jordan Harris is the founder of Pegasus Institute, a “millenial-led, state-based think-tank” based in Kentucky. Pat Smith is a community researcher who has been one of the most outspoken critics of the legitimacy of Pegasus Institute. We brought them together for a conversation.

We won’t lie, this episode gets pretty dicey! We hope that this discussion brought forth more “light” than “heat”, and that people come away from this episode with more information about what Pegasus Institute is, and how they conceptualize what they do.
